Schools and Types of Organization. There are 716 high schools
in Kentucky. This number is in contrast to 738 operating last year,
808 five years ago. and 848 eight years ago. This means a decrease of . ‘
132 high schools in eight years. . 1,: {l !

 

0f the 716 high schools now operating, 643 are complete organiza-
tions; i. e., they otter a program of studies through the twelfth grade.
Forty-four per cent of the complete high schools are organized on the
six-year basis (grades 7—12). This represents an increase of l6 in
the number of six-year high schools during the past year. The '3!
number of four-year organizations (grades 9—12) has decreased 13 in
number during the same period. The number of junior high schools
(grades 7—9) is 36. Twenty-one of them are found in independent
districts While fifteen are located in county districts. There are only , _ .
eleven senior high schools, grades 10—12. All are in independent ‘ . ' i
districts except one which is a private high school. »

The table above shows that 51 high schools, public and privatfi
enroll fewer than 50 pupils. Last year this number was 66. Two
years ago the number was 86, a decrease of 35 in the number of these
very small high schools in two years. Twenty—eight of the high schools
enrolling fewer than 50 pupils are private high schools and high schools
for Negroes. The above table also discloses that there are 231 hi9]1
schools enrolling fewer than 100 pupils. Last year this number Wes
253 while two years ago this number was 302. A decrease of 71111
two years of the number of high schools enrolling fewer than 100
DUPHS- Of the present number of 231 high schools enrolling fewer
than 100 pupils, 68 are private schools and high schools for Negroes.
This table also shows that this year the number of high schools enroll-
ing from 100—199 pupils is 285; last year this number was 279 schools-
VVhen one compares the number of high schools enrolling 200 01‘
more pupils one finds a slight decrease in numbers when compared
with those of last year. This year the number is 200, while last year
the number was 206. The above figures indicate that the number 0f
small forty,— fifty,— and seventy-pupil high schools are disappeal”
ing, with a tendency, through consolidation, to develop high $011001
centers with enrollments from 1.00 to 200 pupils.

The number of small. public high schools which. continue to eXist
are not continuing so much because of a conviction of their worth
but rather 011 account of such facts as sparseiiess of population in
areas Where they are located. poor road conditions for transportation
to larger and better centers, or inadequate financial ability to operate
a hettervsystein of schools.

As has been pointed out, the number of small high schools is
decreasing. Considerable of this decrease is due' to the regulations of
the State Board of Education in reference to the number of teachers
employed and the number of pupils enrolled in the various types of
accredited high schools.

Class A High Schools

(1) Four-year high schools (grades 9—12) and three-year
senior high schools (grades 10—12) shall employ at least five full-time
teachers and have a bona tide enrollment of at least one hundred
pupils.

(2) Six-year high schools (grade 7—12) shall employ at least
Seven full—time teachers and have a bona fide enrollment of at least
one hundred and fifty pupils, one hundred of whom shall be enrolled
in grades 9, 10, 11 and 12.

Class B High Schools

(1) Four-year high schools (grades 9—12) shall employ at least
three full-time teachers and have a bona fide enrollment of not fewer
than sixty pupils.

(2) Six-year high schools (grades 7—12) shall. employ at least
four full-time teachers and have a bona fide enrollment of not fewer

than eighty-five pupils, sixty of Whom shall be enrolled in grades
9, 10, 11 and 12.

The above regulations went into effect last year. Prior to last
year, local school authorities were notified from time to time regarding
the fact that these regulations were to go into effect. The Division of
b1.1P91‘Vision of the State Department of Education has cooperated and
Will continue to cooperate with local school authorities in adjusting
thfiu' high school programs to meet these requirements. In passing, it
221%? be noted that since the meeting of the Accrediting Committee
the DeiCollege Association in December, county school authorities and

\ VlSlOn of SuperViSion have worked out a number of satisfactory
p rOgrams by Which their small high schools, failing to meet Class B

I'e ‘ - . .
yequmements, Will be prOVided for at larger high school centers next

Table IV shows a continuous growth in the number of 1113]]
schools from 1915 to 1935. As pointed out earlier in this statement,
since 1935 there has been a decrease of 132 in the number of 1311th
and private high schools in the state; 114 of this number have been
public high schools while 18 have been private secondary schools-
The decrease in thenumber of public high schools has come about
very largely as a result of their merger into larger school centers.

Table V presents an interesting picture of the increase in high
school enrollments in the different types of high schools since 1915
to the present day. it will be noted. however, when one observes the
total high school enrollment t'or this year and the total high school
enrollment for last year, that there has been a decrease of 4,537 pupils.
Both the public white high schools and pnplic eolored high schools
show a decrease. It, is especially marked in the ease of the public
White high schools. it is only in private high schools that there has
been an increase in enrollment as eonlpared with the enrollment of
last year. This increase has been slight. Doubtless our total public
high school enrollment is now reflecting the decreasing enrollments of
PM years in our elementary schools. It is also probable that some of
this decrease can be attributed to the fact, that, a number of .high school
pupils have dropped out of school either to enter defense industries or

to enter some type of defense training)‘ that. their local schools do not
Provide.

Table VI shows the situation as regards the number of accredited
high schools, by years, since 1909. \Vhen one thinks of a high school
in its true sense, one thinks of an institution that otters a program
of work through the twelfth grade. High schools that are organized
to give work which does not extend through the twelfth grade, eXCGPl‘
ing junior high schools (grades 7—9), should he looked upon. 35
incomplete, feeder schools for regularly organized high schools; 1.9-;
schools that offer pupils a complete high school prog "am through the
twelfth grade.

Negro High Schools

The number of Negro people in Kentucky has been reducing for
many years. They 110w constitute no more than seven to each one
hundred people in the state. They tend to concentrate in coal mining“
areas, Where the men work in industry, and in cities and tOi‘lllSi
Where the women and the men work in domestic and personal serv1ce.
Outside of these areas the Negro population has become so sparse
that it is very difficult and expensive to provide their separate 50.11001
service. The Pl‘Oblem of high school service for them is espema“.V
difficult.

No more than forty—five counties have enough Negro population
to make a twelve-grade school seem practical. Fifty-nine counties
have no Negro high school service, and must send all their colored
pupils to high schools in other counties. Ten others have only junior
(incomplete) high schools, and send the upper grades away. Only
forty—seven counties have approved complete colored high schools, and
four have unapproved schools.

This situation has led in some areas to cooperation by counties to
maintain regional high schools. The high school in the city of Hick-
man serves all the city and county districts ot.’ Fulton, Hickman and
Carlisle counties. The twelve—grade Paducah city school serves the
,counties of McCracken, Ballard and Livingston. Princeton has the
only twelve—g ‘ade school in the counties of Caldwell, Crittenden, Lyon

and Trigg. The Covington school serves several counties in the

North, and Maysville several in its area. These two are the only
twelve-grade Negro schools in the twelve Ohio River counties between
Louisville and Ashland.

A county that has only six or eight high school pupils, widely
scattered over the county, finds it cheaper to pay their board than to
transport them each day to high sehool in some other county. Most of
the pupils provided for on the boarding plan. are sent to the state
voeational high school. at Lincoln Institute. Some go to the state
trades school in Paducah. There a pupil in the last two years of
high school may be taught a trade in two years and get high school
credit. These two school: and the college at Frankfort, all operated
by the state, have the only school dormitories open to Negroes in Ken-
tucky. As a rule, districts within, a county cooperate in colored high
school service. The only exceptions are in Harlan, Hopkins and
Montgomery counties, where separate districts have separate high
schools. This weakness is about to be corrected in Montgomery, and
Should be in Hopkins. Long distance and large numbers justify two
hlg‘h schools in Harlan County. In Bell, Fayette and \Varren the
cooperation is limited to the upper high school grades, with separate
Schools for beginning grades. This is justified in Bell and Fayette by
Well equipped and efficiently operated junior schools, and in Bell by
long distance, but the separate school is not justified in \Varren.

.Less than one seventh of the children in school census, ages six
to 61g‘hteen years, are enrolled in our public and private high schools,
grades nine to twelve. The percentages, rough measures of et't’ort, are:
white, 13.6%; colored, 13.4%.

The percentage of loss from ninth to twelt‘th grade is 3G for the
whites and 54 for the colored. 54 is 50% more than 36. This fifty -

tutes a heavy handicap to the colored.

\Vhy should membership loss in high school he titty per cent ‘
greater for colored than for white? Is it due to the fact, that some
